We wanted to stay at Fridays, but it was booked up for our dates, so we chose Willys. Previous reviews commented on the excellent service at Willys, but we were not overly impressed. Perhaps if you like to be greeted a hundred times a day, you would respond to this kind of hospitality more than we did. We found we tired of the constant "Hello, ma'am, hello, sir" after the first few hours.

The beach at Willys is really nice, and we were glad we stayed at the quiet end of White Beach. It's easy enough to walk or take local transportation the "d*mall" and the rest of the central restaurant and shop area.

The hotel room was fine, and the bathroom very nice. We were disappointed that the patio door led to a shared balcony--no privacy to sit outside at all. The room furniture was disappointing, and worst of all was the bed. The good news is that we had a king bed; the bad news is that the linens and bedspread were sized for a double bed.

The resort didn't provide any written literature in the room about the facilities, so we were on our own to discover what was there. (Found the massage area on our 3rd day there by accident).

Visitors to Boracay should be prepared to wade from the boat to the beach upon arrival, sometimes in thigh-high water. The ramps from boats to beach are less than a foot wide and quite steep. The boat hands are great at helping people in and out, but if the waves are at all big, it can be a little challenging for the less sure-footed to get from boat to land or vice-versa.

We spent 10 days at Boracay Feb 2004, and we stayed at Willy's Beach Resort. We were very happy with the service and friendly staff at the hotel. Rooms very very average but to that price we knew just about what to expect so it wasn't a surprise. Ask for a room on the 2nd floor. Best part was that the location of the hotel its on the end of the busy beach promenade with all shops etc. and in the beginning of the mpre quiet and tranquil part of the beach, next to the more classy hotels. So if you are looking for a good deal and do not need 4-star facilities, I would highly recommend this place! Don't miss dinner at the restaurant Pier 31! Lovely...

All the reviews posted here reflects the excellent experience we had at Willy's. From the initial reservation contact to the final transer at Kalibo, Willy's took care of its guests.

Willy's is one of a handful resorts that will greet you at Kalibo airport and help you with the transfers and luggages. The resort representative Ruel made his guest feel welcomed once you arrive in Kalibo. Ruel was with us the rest of the way to Willy's and arranged the transfers and baggage porters so that I did not have to deal with it. I knew I was on vacation once I saw his smiling face. No worries at that point.

Willy's also had a private vehicle pick us up at the Boracay boat station. You should have seen the faces of other hotel guests when they saw us board a small SUV and they were riding a tricycle to their resort. I don't know if this was a perk of booking directly with them and buying the transfer with Willy's, but it was good!

The resort itself was fairly new and well maintained. The biggest advantage here is that it was oceanfront and was really near the nice resorts in Boat Station 1. The rooms were clean, and the bathrooms were well appointed. The shower was a full body shower with multiple jets and good water pressure. A small fridge was a nice touch to keep your bottled water and drinks cold. An in-room safe was available for you to use. The housekeeping staff was friendly and was quick to respond for extra towels or pillows.

The restaurant was good and was always good for in-house dining. With so many food choices in Boracay, finding a good place to eat was never a problem. If you wanted to save money, Andok's Chicken was a short walk from Willy's and even had a complete breakfast for P49 (approx. $1 USD)!

Sir Willy was even there when we stayed. You would not think he owned the place since he was doing grounds maintenance and gardening. He was a true gentleman and thanked you personally for staying at his place.

We booked this hotel based on our friends personal recommendation. We owe them many thanks for helping us find this little paradise in lovely Boracay. It was hard checking out of Willy's, but Ruel was with us again on the way back to Kalibo. Making the departure a little less painful.

Thanks to Sir Willy, Ruel and everyone at Willy's resort. Yes, even the beach vendors were nice at Willy's!

I can't believe that Willy's resort is very nice hotel. I choose this resort because I've already read some beautiful comments on this hotel. We've been there last June29 to July1 with my husband to have our honeymoon. On Kalibo airport there is a personnel on Willy's resort who will guide you where to ride a bus. And on the bus stop there's also a personnel who will help you, his name is Ruel. He help us on our bags and on the boat ride. You can't believe that among the passengers, only Willy's resort do this kind of treatment. On the boat stop, there's a REVO waiting to ride you on the hotel because on our way there it's Habagat time ( high tide) so the boat stop on the back of the sea and not on Station 1. The other resort and hotel ride on the tricycle but Willy's resort you will ride on thr REVO. This hotel is highly reccommended to everybody. The staff were very kind and friendly, they will treat you like as part of there family. When we came on the hotel they will put a lei on your neck and also a welcome drinks. On our second day we have our free breakfast, and the food are delicious. After our breakfast we went to other place for an island hopping. We get back on the hotel at 11:00am and were very much surprise that on our bed there's a dove heart shape decoration using our towel. I'll attach the picture how sweet they are with there guests. We also have a free dinner for two. I also reccommend to try there mango juice, it's very much delicious. Willy's hotel is like a 5-star hotel. So if you want to go to boracay, reserve on Willy's Resort Hotel.
